AUTHENTICATION OF AN OBJECT
First Claim
1. A system for authenticating an object, the system including:
- an optical sensing device for sensing coded data provided on a surface associated with the object, the coded data being indicative of;
a position on the surface;
an identity associated with the object; and
,a part of a signature, the signature being a digital signature of at least part of the identity;
a processor in communication with the optical sensing device for;
determining, using the sensed coded data, a sensed identity and a sensed signature part;
determining, using the position, a sensed signature part identity;
determining, using the sensed identity, at least a determined signature;
determining, using the determined signature and the sensed signature part identity, a determined signature part;
comparing the determined signature part to the sensed signature part; and
,authenticating the object using the result of the comparison.

Abstract
A system for authenticating an object is disclosed. The system includes an optical sensing device and a processor. The optical sensing device senses coded data provided on a surface associated with the object. The coded data is indicative of a position on the surface, an identity associated with the object, and a part of a signature. The signature is a digital signature of the identity. The processor determines, using the sensed coded data, a sensed identity and a sensed signature part, determines, using the position, a sensed signature part identity, determines, using the sensed identity, at least a determined signature, determines, using the determined signature and the sensed signature part identity, a determined signature part, compares the determined signature part to the sensed signature part, and authenticates the object using the result of the comparison.
